The Brothers Grimm

[Lilaena De'Ville]

This movie opens in two weeks, and I really wish they'd do some agressive ad campaigning on it. I've barely seen the poster and the trailer twice in the last month, and nothing before that at all.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0355295/trailers A link to the trailer. I think it'll be a good movie, although some people think it's another Van Helsing.

ugh it's a Gilliam film. It will NOT be Helsing :x

[Sanis Prent]

Pros: Terry Gilliam

Cons: MATT DAMON

I kinda want to see this one.

[Navaria Tarkin]

Yeah, I'm kinda with ya ... looks great because it's Gilliam but... meh... hard to find myself wanting to see a movie much anymore :\

[Sejah Haversh]

After seeing Matt Damon on Leno, this actually looks like it'll be a really fun movie. Terry Gilliam has onyl once disappointed me (12 Monkeys), and he did make one of my favorite movies of all time (The Avdentures of Baron Munchausen), so this looks to be right up my alley.

Besides, I can see Heath Ledger reprising some of his role as William from A Knights Tale in his role in this film. Good, fun fantasy movie by a good writer/director, I'm there.

[Darth McBain]

I loved 12 Monkeys... I think this might actually be kinda cool and worth checking out.

[Jedi Master Carr]

They are rumors that they had a test screening last year and the audience hated it. The movie was then delayed who knows what it is like. I bet it doesn't make money Gilliam's films aren't really commerical.

[Phantom]

I loved 12 Monkeys too. This movie actually looks pretty good. Matt Damon isn't my most favorite actor, but I thought he was awesome in both of the Bournes.

[Jedi Master Carr]

Its funny you brought that up 12 Monkeys and Time Bandits are his only commerical hits. His best film was Brazil and it was a flop. Although my personal two favorites of his are his two commerical ones.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I adore 12 Monkeys. I didn't realize it was the same director.

[Mitch]

Dude, Baron Munchausen was better than Brazil. Though Brazil was good, it has nothing on the Baron.

And, 12 Monkeys can bite me.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

12 Monkey bites? Ow!


:lol

You are clearly inder the influence of something not legal and thence I shall forgive you. Baron was a slimy steaming crap of contempt, it was by far one of the worst movies I have had the displeasure of wasting money on.

[Razielle Alastor]

Monica! :love

Other than Damon, I think it looks pretty good. I've never really cared much for reviews anyways, or how much money something racks in so...

Oh and I liked 12 Monkeys and the Baron so :p !

[Hera]

I will see this movie simply because it IS Matt Damon in it.

And I too liked 12 monkeys a great deal.

I think this movie will be fun.

[Jedi Master Carr]

Well most critics say Brazil was his best film. My personal favorite of his is Time Bandits but I think that has to do with the time travel aspects of the film.

[Zasz Grimm]

I like the way it looks, personally. I'll most likely wind up going to go see it with friends or family when I go visit Texas for three weeks.

[Sean Piett]

Gilliam is amazing. Dang, I really wish his Quixote movie would have worked.

[Jedi Master Carr]

Not sure why that fell apart though I have read it was him. The man is a genius filmmaker but he can be very ecentric at times. I think the studio got fet up with how slow it took him but that is speculation on my part.

[Sean Piett]

I highly recommend you watch Lost in La Mancha, a documentary on just why it didn't work. In short, you're absolutely right.

[Lance Casey]

Only good part of Baron is when you see Uma Thurman topless.



One track mind.

[Daiquiri]

Ive always liked Dogma, myself :)

[Phantom]

*Goes to rent Baron.* :D

EDIT: I caught a showing of it this afternoon. I gotta tell you, I liked it a lot. It was funny as hell. Both Damon and Ledger were great. To be honest it was not at all what I had expected, but I it was really cool none the less. I recommend seeing it.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I saw it last night - excellent! My husband was annoyed at all the times the momentum would get going and then the French guys would pop up again and jam everything up, but I thought it just made it funny.

So I liked it, he didn't care for it. But then he's never seen any of Gilliam's other movies, so. . .
